Unfortunately this isn't sufficient for sharing an IRQ between multiple 
PMUs - the CPU affinity and hotplug context migration must be kept in 
sync as well.

I guess I really should get back to my old plan to factor out a common 
helper library for all this stuff - that was the main reason I left 
combined IRQ support out of the initial version here rather than do 
another copy-paste of the arm_dmc620 design again...

Thanks,
Robin.
